Chapter 394: The Back Road
Wu Jinde did not go directly to the worship house, but first went to follow the process to handle the official military positions of the three worshippers, and then received the identity token before going to the worship house to convey the order.
Although the monks are powerful in the eyes of ordinary people, they are only so in the eyes of the real powerful, after all, the monks in this world have declined, but Shinto is prosperous, even if the monks are powerful, unless they are willing to be reincarnated after death, they have to rely on the gods to obtain immortality, and Shinto relies on the incense of all people, which shows the power of the court.
It doesn't matter what kind of god you are, either the imperial court canonized or a wild god, dare to be disobedient, cutting down mountains and destroying temples is just ordinary, so sometimes, Shinto also needs to see the face of the imperial court and accept the canonization of the imperial court.
Even some powerful monks, in the face of luck, life, and officialdom of the three-layer protection of the powerful and high-ranking officials, can not shoot casually, even some of the famous Confucians have a heroic righteousness and the will of the people to protect themselves, once they make a move against this kind of people, they will be counterattacked, and then they will be chased to death by all kinds of Shinto, which shows how much restriction there is, not to mention in the army of ghosts and gods, I am afraid that just staying where there is a danger of going mad.
But now that the world is about to be in turmoil, the country's fortunes are declining, the people are changing, demons are born, and all kinds of restrictions are greatly declining.
Therefore, powerful monks such as the Ten Thousand Blades Ancestor, Samadhi Boy, and Miao Hua Niangniang can only take on a layer of official body and be able to shoot in the army, and if they are combined with some magic weapon formations, the power is enough to determine the outcome of a battle.
This is also the main reason why Chen Gui and Wu Jinde believe that the change in the imperial army is related to the monks, so they plan to send the monks to deal with it as well.
Chen Gui's soldiers and horses were lost a lot by the imperial army, and after retreating for fifty miles, Li Poshan did not rush to attack the opponent's heavily guarded camp, but calmed down to train the troops.
These armies that were originally composed of garrisons from all over the country like waste, but now they have seen the blood, and they have been stimulated by fear, and the ferocity in their hearts can already be used for Li Poshan, so he chose to train these soldiers and horses, rather than continue to let them rely on the ferocity of being stimulated to fight hard, Li Poshan wants iron-blooded warriors, not a group of irrational beasts.
Although there is a steady stream of supplements from the imperial court, but the garrisons around the country are also limited, the nearby garrisons have been mobilized, and then mobilize reinforcements need to go to farther places, this is not an easy task, military salaries, food, grass and armor are all problems, not to mention that many garrisons around the country have a tendency to get out of control, as soon as they receive the order, they continue to pour bitter water, ask for money and food, and ask for weapons and official positions, it can be said that everyone has become greedy, and even dare to talk to the court about the conditions, some garrisons are more simply, do not open their mouths, and directly seize the rights of nearby counties, and become the emperor of the soil, so that the court is busy, but there is no way to send troops and horses to suppress, so Yan Liang has not ushered in reinforcements here for a long time, and with the previous attrition, there are only 150,000 soldiers and horses available.
"Enough. Li Poshan didn't have the slightest worry about this, not to mention that there were still 150,000 horses, even if there were only a few thousand, he would dare to start a war with any opponent.
"What about the grain and grass?" Yan Xu also participated in this internal discussion, and frowned after knowing that there were no reinforcements, but he was more concerned about the issue of grain and grass, after all, without grain and grass, even if there were millions of soldiers and horses, there would only be one way to lose.
"I have begged for grain and grass many times before, but now although the support of the imperial court is only the first three layers, the grain and grass that can be stored is enough to meet the needs of the army for three months, and if the transportation is continuous, it can support one or two more months. Yan Liang was originally the main commander of the army, so he naturally knew the importance of grain and grass, so he took advantage that the imperial court could only rely on his own advantages at that time, and asked for a large amount of grain and grass and armor to be stored in the camp.
"I always feel that something is not enough. Yan Xu touched his nose and said, he felt that this war would not end so soon.
"I have organized 30,000 old and weak people eliminated in the army to go to the nearby county town to open up wasteland and farm, during which the grain and grass will be borne by the local county, and wait for the autumn harvest to return another layer. Because of Li Poshan's high requirements, most of the 150,000 people were eliminated, and 80,000 people were eliminated, how to settle it became a problem, anyway, it must not be handed over to the imperial court, so Yan Liang simply placed the old and weak who were unusable to the nearby county town to go to the military camp, and the remaining 50,000 people, except for 30,000 people who stayed in the army as auxiliaries, and the remaining 20,000 people were placed in the rear to patrol and suppress bandits to maintain law and order.
As a result, the battalion only retained 100,000 soldiers and horses, but its combat effectiveness increased instead of decreasing.
At this time, a discerning person could also see that Yan Liang was learning from Chen Gui, relying on the soldiers and horses in his hands to occupy all the nearby county seats.
Yan Liang himself has the imperial order, and he is holding the sword of Shang Fang that can be cut first and then played, and he is also a civil official, with a family history, and it is still a troubled time, so although it is not in accordance with the rules, he has almost no resistance when he implements it, and the attitude of those county orders is also very ambiguous, and he turns a blind eye to some of Yan Liang's outrageous actions.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand that they are also looking for a way back for themselves.
In peacetime, the county order can be called Baili Hou, holding the life and death of the people of a county, but in troubled times, a group of mobs can tear them apart, and Yan Liang, who has the name of the imperial court, holds military power, and belongs to the civilian camp with them, is obviously a good early refuge object.
Yan Liang knew the thoughts of these county orders, and at the same time he also knew that these county orders must have secretly collected a lot of evidence about him, if he did not fall, but rose to the top, then these criminal evidence would disappear quietly, as if they had never appeared, if he was defeated, whether he was defeated by Chen Gui or removed by the imperial court, these criminal evidence would eventually become a stone to fall into the well.
But Yan Liang can't help but do this, he has no way out, even if the court wants to remove him now, he can't leave, because once he leaves, after losing his rights, the fate of the Yan family can be imagined.
Yan Xu also knows this, otherwise how could he have the patience to stay in the barracks all the time at a young age, and work hard to learn everything, now he has changed out of the clothes he likes, put on the cold armor, put down the elegant gentleman's sword in his hand, picked up the vulgar mixed iron rod, and at the same time learned from the iron-clothed guest Li Poshan every day like leading soldiers, how to fight, all this is for the Yan family, this is the back road of their Yan family, so they can't be defeated.
It's a pity that this process will definitely not be smooth sailing, so Yan Liang and Yan Xu must gather more strength, it is not enough to have the iron-clothed guest and Li Poshan, especially when Yan Liang knows about the existence of the Immortal Wu family.
Therefore, Yan Liang did not hesitate to report to the imperial court and asked to send some special reinforcements.
